It's short yes. But when I tried to post it, it deleted itself. I swear the app hates me.
Also kinda, wanna write Rarl one-shots. Thoughts? Good idea, bad idea?

Carl POV

"So you're going?" Ron questions.

He was sitting cross-legged on the mattress watching while me as I changed my shirt. I tried to ignore the feeling of his eyes on me and focused on my cheeks not turning red. Ron was holding onto a pillow that sat in his lap trying to hide the fact he was holding it so tight his knuckle were turning white. Down the hallway I could hear Dad talking to Judith who was making random noises at him. Ron fidgeted uncomfortably at the sound almost as if he was trying to get away from the noise. I didn't tell Ron what happened when he blacked out. It wasn't exactly a nice memory.

Ron had freaked out to the point he had his hands over his ears and was mumbling to himself. Speaking so fast, making it hard to understand anything he was going on about. After a few minutes of us sitting on the living room floor Denise showed up to talk to my Dad. Knowing more people would have made Ron worse I carried him upstairs. Which ended up with him freaking out when we got into the bedroom. He got frantic and started to swing his arms and kick his feet. One of his hands collided nose making a few drops of blood fall. I ignored the throbbing pain to try and calm him down.

Ron arms and legs stopped being thrashed about only to have his complete body pause for a moment. I went to question him but instead Ron reached out to grab the back of my neck and press his lip hastily against mine. My mind froze in that moment unsure of what was happening. When I realise Ron was slowly calming down I kissed him back. I crawled up to push him against the bed and sit on top of him. Only then did he pull away. Eyes big and round with confusion but relief flooded over me. After that Ron went into concerned mode, asking question after question freaking out because of the blood on my shirt but I didn't answer a single question. I just smiled saying everything was fine.

"Hey asshole!" Ron burst for a split second before his face twist in pain again. "Would you answer me... Please?"

"Maggie's hurt. Something could be wrong with the baby." I answer, tugging the shirt over my head. "Do you honestly think I should stay behind? What if they need me?"

Ron seems to consider my words. "More like hoping you'd stay."

His words are barely above a whisper not really sure if he wanted me to hear them. I turn to face Ron to see him watching the ground. The looks on his face tells me he didn't want me to hear. The fear of what he was thinking makes my stomach twist in knots Ron eyes drop to the ground for moment, looking deep in thought. Ron moves the pillow from his lap and before I can react he gets up to walk over to me and wrap his arms around my waist.

I doesn't hesitate to wrap my arms over his shoulders with a tight grip, one of my hands sliding in to his hair. Ron presses his face into the side of my neck stopping me from seeing any of his reactions. I close my eyes trying to take in the feel of Ron warmth. I comb my finger through his hair while Ron held on tight, leaving no part of us that wasn't touching. It reminded me I was going to leave him behind again. How long was I going to be without Ron this time? It had never been more than a few hours before. I feel sick to my stomach and I start to pity myself.

"Ron, I'll come back." I answered as if to reassure my own thoughts. "Don't I always?"

"What if you don't?" I feel Ron's tears against my skin. "One day you won't and what if today-"

His words are cut off when my hands move to grab his shoulders and drag Ron back. I slide my hands to his cheeks just to stare at him. Before I could stop myself I grabbed onto Ron tighter and pulled him forward, his hips hit mine and at the same time my lips connected with his. My eyes are squeezed tight while I pour as much emotion as I could into this kiss hoping Ron understood. I am the one who pulls back but I don't open my eyes while resting my forehead against his. My heart races in my chest I was scared Ron could hear it.
